Loud humming / whining noise comes from the rear area of car (seems to be outside and not from speakers). Also noise seems to go up and down in volume with the turn signal on but the stereo does not need to be on as the noise is there as soon as you start the car. From what I've gathered it could be from the alternator. Is that true?
SOURCE: 1989 corvette, engine noise coming thru stereo speakers,
hissing soud is from the altenator ( not a big deal ) have a noise reducer installed or have the stereo rewired for it's power wire from a different location. Very common thing that happens by do it your selfers.
As for oil temp I'm not sure what it should be on thatcar but is it oil tem or oil pressure?

RECHECK THE WIRING TO SPEAKERS AND CHECK THE STERO IS COMPATIBLE TO WIRING.

Remove the serpentine belt and check the pulleys on the front of the engine. There may be a bad idler pulley or other component. Replace the serpentine belt if it hasn't been done in a few years.

Some portable audio equipment may be susceptible to certain types of electronic noise present in the vehicle's 12V power outlet.
Here are two ways to eliminate this type of interference:
-
If the audio device is capable of being self-powered (battery), use
it that way instead of plugging it into the vehicle's power outlet.
-
Have the customer purchase a Ground Loop Isolator, such as *Radio
Shack Catalog #270-054. This device plugs in between the radio and the
customer's audio device. It is packed with one included Y-Adapter. If
purchasing the *Radio Shack product, you will require an additional
Y-Adapter (Catalog #274-369). This device should be installed between
the audio player and the AUX input of the vehicle radio. These catalog
numbers are stocked nationally at *Radio Shack Retail Stores in the
U.S. and are currently available. Other similar products are available
through other electronics or car stereo retailers defined as Ground
Loop Isolators.
